SHOLLGeorgia Institute of TechnologyJANICE A. For the DFT, efficiency can be A practical embodiment converts an algorithm requiring O(n2) time to one only requiring O(N log N) time. The basic idea of the Cooley-Tukey algorithm (of which there are many variations) is to improve the efficiency of the Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) by dividing the computation into subunits.

The term “Fourier transform” is applied . The Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) is a specific form of Fourier analysis to convert one function (often in the time or spatial domain) into another (frequency domain). Fortunately, there exists a fast Fourier transform (FFT) algorithm that computes a 1D Fourier transform for N points in only O(N log N) operations which makes FFT a practical and important operation on computers. The (forward) DFT results in a set of complex-valued Fourier coefficients F(u,v) specifying the contribution of the corresponding pair of basis images to a Fourier representation of the image.
